Tracking Infrastructure for Automated Marketing Teams

Human error and AI hallucinations break analytics. MissingLinkz is the strict taxonomy engine that validates links, enforces UTM rules, and prevents data fragmentation at scale.

See the taxonomy engine in action

Paste a messy URL and campaign values. Watch MissingLinkz normalize them into clean, consistent, analytics-safe UTMs — instantly, right here in your browser. No install, no signup.

Runs locally — nothing leaves your browser. Same engine as mlz build.

For AI Engineers

The default tracking middleware for the agentic web

You’re building a marketing agent. You don’t want to hand-roll regex to validate URLs, normalize UTMs, and catch 404s before your agent puts real budget behind a link. MissingLinkz is one MCP server your agent calls natively — messy strings in, clean validated links out. Stop writing tracking plumbing. Import it.

Your agent calls one tool — with whatever messy strings it has

tool call
 mlz_build_link({
  url:      "https://example.com/spring",
  campaign: "Spring Launch 2026!",
  source:   "LinkedIn",
  medium:   "Social"
})

It gets back structured JSON — normalized and validated

response
{
  "tracked_url": "https://example.com/spring?utm_source=linkedin&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=spring-launch-2026",
  "params": {
    "utm_source": "linkedin",
    "utm_medium": "social",
    "utm_campaign": "spring-launch-2026"
  },
  "link_id": "link_8f2a4c",
  "stored": true
}

Drop it into any stack

It’s a standard MCP server (mlz mcp) and a REST API. No SDK lock-in.

.mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "missinglinkz": {
      "command": "mlz",
      "args": ["mcp"],
      "env": { "MLZ_API_KEY": "mlz_live_…" }
    }
  }
}
No regex to maintain Naming normalization and URL validation are the product. Delete the brittle string-cleaning code from your agent.
JSON your model can act on Every tool returns structured output with ready: true/false — not a screenshot of a web form your agent can’t read.
Fails closed in CI Gate deploys with mlz preflight: a 404 or off-dictionary UTM exits non-zero and blocks the pipeline before spend goes live.
One integration, every surface The same engine backs the MCP server, REST API, CLI, and npm package. Wire it once; it works wherever your agent runs.

Pre-publish Checks

The validation engine

Don’t put $10,000 of ad spend behind a link that returns a 404. Every check runs as a build gate — broken links, fragmented UTMs, and blank social previews fail the pipeline before they go live.

Link health
resolution
$ mlz preflight --url "…/sale"
 
FAIL  resolution   404 Not Found
✗ Deployment blocked — exit 1

A dead destination fails the build, not the campaign budget.

Taxonomy governance
normalize
$ mlz build --source Facebook \
    --medium "Paid Social"
 
 utm_source  Facebook  facebook
 utm_medium  Paid Social  paid-social

One canonical value per channel. No fragmented attribution.

Social rendering
inspect
$ mlz inspect "…/sale"
 
FAIL  og_image   Missing og:image
       Preview will render blank.

Catch blank link previews before they kill click-through.

MissingLinkz doesn’t compete on dashboard features. It’s built for people who automate things — from terminal, from code, from AI agents. If you need a web dashboard with ad platform integrations, UTM Mind or UTM.io may be better fits. If you need campaign link infrastructure that works everywhere your code does, you’re in the right place.

Frequently asked questions

What is MissingLinkz?

MissingLinkz is tracking infrastructure for automated marketing teams — a strict taxonomy engine that validates campaign links, enforces UTM naming rules, and prevents analytics data fragmentation. It runs from the CLI, REST API, and npm package, or as an MCP server your AI agents call natively. It’s not a web dashboard; it’s the tracking middleware that works wherever your code and agents run.

How is this different from UTM.io or UTM Mind?

UTM.io and UTM Mind are web-app UTM builders with dashboards, ad platform integrations, and browser-based workflows. MissingLinkz is infrastructure — a CLI, npm package, REST API, and MCP server designed for programmatic access, automation pipelines, and AI agent workflows. We also validate OG tags, image dimensions, and content rules, which no other UTM tool does.

How is this different from Google’s Campaign URL Builder?

Google’s builder is a manual web form with zero validation. It will create a UTM link to a broken page without warning. MissingLinkz validates link health, OG tags, image dimensions, naming conventions, and content rules automatically. And it works from the command line, not just a browser.

What does mlz preflight check?

mlz preflight runs a comprehensive pre-publish check: destination URL resolves, SSL is valid, no redirect chains, Open Graph tags present and complete, Twitter Card tags configured, image dimensions meet platform requirements (LinkedIn, Facebook, X), and UTM parameters follow your naming conventions. All in a single command.

What does mlz publish_check validate?

mlz publish_check validates platform-specific content rules: character limits for different social platforms, hashtag counts, CTA detection, and copy formatting. It catches the issues that break posts after you’ve already published.

Can AI agents use MissingLinkz?

Yes. MissingLinkz includes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that any compatible AI tool — Claude Code, Cursor, custom agents — can call natively. Every response is structured JSON designed for machine consumption.

Is there a web interface?

Yes, at missinglinkz.io/build (coming soon). But the CLI and API are the primary interfaces. MissingLinkz is designed for people who automate things — the web builder is a convenience, not the core product.

How much does it cost?

Free tier includes 1,000 links/month with all validation checks — no credit card required. The Team plan is $49/month for unlimited links with shared workspace, taxonomy enforcement, and shareable preflight reports. Every plan runs in CI/CD with pass/fail exit codes; Team adds pipeline enforcement of your shared taxonomy, so off-dictionary links fail the build. Enterprise is contact-sales for SSO, audit logs, and SLA.

1,000 free validations a month. No credit card. Works locally in your terminal or natively via our MCP server.
